State of the Art

STATE OF THE ART (1994)
Salina, Kansas in cooperation with Unified School District 305 (teens)

 

A local art center is the sanctuary for an extraordinarily talented group of young artists. A highly uptight mayor and the city council attempt to close down the center over some controversial exhibitions. The unarmed artists take the city council members and the mayor hostage and give them an art lesson they will never forget.
